Is this functionality helpful for other controllers but memcg?
css_is_ancestor is currently used only by memcg code AFAICS and we can
get the same functionality easily by using something like:
	
diff --git a/mm/memcontrol.c b/mm/memcontrol.c
index d195f40..37bbbff 100644
--- a/mm/memcontrol.c
+++ b/mm/memcontrol.c

In both cases we have to go up the hierarchy.
